Habitat

Mixed-Media Wall Art

Gouache painting with mixed media: India ink, wood, and embroidery. The text describes the habitat of the beaver lodge. The image of the lodge includes other species that the beaver will allow into its lodge; turtle, duck, and otter. The text is written in India ink using a rudimentary bamboo pen. This ink application technique creates an Asian appearance. Colors range from blues, greens, rust, and black.
